Not such a turtle after all! Territurtle makes 25k

Question

Felicitaciones Terri! ¡Que logro! I'm sure we'll all agree that it's a pleasure to have Territurtle with us on SD with her bright and friendly personality and her great sense of humour!

Actually I was able to ask Terri about how she felt upon reaching 25k and this was her response ....

Great post, Kiwi!! - pesta, Jan 18, 2012

Answer 1

As you can see, I'm a very happy turtle now!!

I love the traditions of SD.

And one of the best traditions is when we have an opportunity to express our gratitude and affection to the people who matter most

I've had an outstanding journey with each of you, cherishing the learning we've shared together.

So I thank you for your posts, each one a personal treasure.

Cutest, brightest, smartest, happiest turtle of all. Just like our Terri! ¡Abrazos! - ajaks, Jan 19, 2012

y a te, un gran abrazo - territurtle, Jan 19, 2012

Gracias Terri! - pacofinkler, Jan 21, 2012

Answer 6

All Terri’s friends and colleagues knew her as meek and mild-mannered Territurtle - just another charming, cheerful, fun-loving, Spanish-learning geek on the forum......

Turns out she's really a super hero in disguise

Who knew?!!!

25K .... OK!!! Congratulations Terri!! Way to go! Whoo-hooo!

rofl :) - Kiwi-Girl, Jan 19, 2012

Ajaks, you are fast joining the ranks of the ninja-posters!! Ever since you came on board, I haven't had a chance to recover from the last laughing fit before you've got me going again!! Thanks for all the tears I've shed! ;))) - territurtle, Jan 19, 2012

If we took a vote, I think you would be the sweetest, most optimistic turtle and member of this forum!!

¡Enhorabuena y bien hecho Terri!!

Aw so cute, and hey that last pic is pretty snazzy - good finding Nicole :) - Kiwi-Girl, Jan 19, 2012

Oh no, Nicole -- Y O U take the title of sweetest, most optimistic *and* generous!! I wouldn't be here to celebrate today without all my time-outs on your island. It is the most fabulous place ever to renew one's spirits!! Thanks, Sweetheart. - territurtle, Jan 19, 2012

Answer 9

Terri, that is just great! Congrats. It's fun to keep up with your answers and posts. Always a smile or a thought to ponder. Keep going! No cute pics from me this time... internet in this place is painfully slow!

I feel your pain, dear KatyDew! And it warms my heart so because you took your precious online time to post in this thread. We seem to touch each other often in threads, and once in chat. - territurtle, Jan 20, 2012

I know for certain I will be looking you up when I go to live in Uruguay, and I eagerly anticipate a **long** and continuing friendship. :-> - territurtle, Jan 20, 2012
